The only shit thing here is the story
I've lurked on here for fucking yonks, but to begin with I thought I'd better hold off registering until I had a copy of Photoshop so I could make The Next Big Thing.

Time passed, and I witnessed Hulk Hogan destroying the Twin Towers and the Navy SEAL's lucky escape from the Frisco Bay shark, hoping one day to wow the b3ta family with my skills.

Then one day, I finally had enough money to buy Photoshop. I installed the software, opened it up, and learned pretty rapidly that I was about as good at using it as my mum is at riding a skateboard...

Never mind, I thought, practice makes perfect. Except several years down the line, I've resigned myself to the fact that it doesn't. 10,000 hours to be an expert, my arse!

So imagine my delight in discovering an Image Challenge that didn't even require me to use Photoshop. And my delight turned to near ecstacy when I spotted that I could used the QOTW to tell my hilarious tale of b3ta redemption.

But I hadn't reckoned on Newbie Twunting Tuesday!

So now my brilliant 25x25 quilt design idea has been done by someone else before I can post it. At least twice. And far, far better on both counts.

Makes my story pretty lame too...
